Age Requirements
How old do I have to be to play paintball?
Low Impact Paintball is suitable for children 10, 11, 12 and 13 years old. Children 12 or older can play regular paintball at our field. Anyone under 18 must have a signed waiver with parental consent. Moms and Dads are welcome to stick around and hang out.
Payments & Pricing
What types of payments do accept at the field?
We accept cash, bank debit cards, MasterCard and Visa credit cards. We also accept gift certificates if they have been purchased through our website. More Info.
How much will it cost me to play for the day?
That is a tough question to answer. It really depends on your play style, what kind of marker(gun) you use and how experienced you are at playing paintball. On the low end you’ll probably pay at least $40 for the day and at the high end you could pay $120 or more. For budget purposes and for people new to the sport, I usually tell people to budget $90 for the day. You can always give us a call if you have questions. More Info.
Clothing
What should I wear/bring to play paintball in ?
You’ll be running around 85 acres of forest and there is a good chance you’ll get a bit dirty. The paint we use is water soluble but just to be safe, you should wear something that is comfortable and a bit older or worn out and you’ll be fine. Wear shoes or boots that offer good support and have good treads on them for gripping the ground when running. A bandana for around your neck and a pair of garden gloves would also be a nice addition. Bug spray and sun block would also come in handy depending on the time of the year.
Can I rent camouflage overalls or a jacket to stay clean?
We rent adult size camouflage overalls and children size camouflage jackets for a small nominal fee of $5.00.
Food
Should I bring a lunch with me?
Please bring a lunch with you if would like to. We have plenty of picnic tables for everyone to use during lunch time. We offer hot-dogs and various snack foods as well as water, pop and sports drinks for a small nominal fee.
Sales / Repairs / Equipment
Do you sell paintball equipment at your field?
Yes and No. You would have to purchase most equipment you require at a local retail store or through an online provider. We do sell small things so call us to chat and see what we have in stock.
Do you fix equipment owner’s guns onsite if they have problems when playing?
Our staff is very knowledgeable and will do their best to help you fix your gun. No promises though.
Do you still use CO2 on your field?
No. We no longer use CO2. If you have an older CO2 tank but still want to play with us, we can rent you a newer air tank for a small nominal fee.
Do you have chest protectors for rent?
Yes. We have a limited supply of chest protectors for rent for a small nominal free of $5.00.
Paintballs
Can I bring my own paintballs with me?
No. All paintballs, including those used to chronograph your gun must be purchased from us at the field. Our liability insurance will not permit people to bring their own paint on to the field. If we find that you are using your own paint, you will be asked to leave the field. A refund of any type will not be given.
Do you use First Strike Rounds at your field?
No. We do not sell or permit First Strike Rounds to be used at our field.

Low Impact Paintball
What is Low Impact Paintball?
Low Impact Paintball (LIP) uses real paintball guns but the barrels are a smaller diameter to accommodate a smaller sized paintball. This is great for younger kids new to paintball. The guns are lighter, much more efficient and the paintballs hit with much less force and therefore sting quite a bit less. Low Impact Paintball (LIP) is great for children’s birthday parties or small corporate events. More Info.
Weather
What happens if it rains?
We play rain or shine with some exceptions. A little rain is to be expected throughout the season considering we play outdoors. If the rain is so hard and heavy that it stops us from playing, a partial re-imbursement might be provided but it depends on a number of factors. The management reserves the right to discuss all options with the players impacted and come to an agreement. We might close down early if the rain is bad and/or if we don’t have players at the field. It is always better to call ahead (1-844-808-8787) before making your way to the field just to be safe.
Memberships
Do you offer yearly memberships?
We offer yearly memberships to players who own all of their own equipment. More Info.
Groups / Walk-ons
Do I need to belong to a group to play or can I play solo?
You can book a private game with a dedicated referee for 20 (minimum) or more people.
“Walk-on” players just show up and play. There could be 50 to 60 people who just show up and they would all play together. By the end of the day, you have made new friends guaranteed.
We try to separate the “Walk-on” rental players and the “Walk-on” equipment owner players into different groups and games but it really depends on how many people show up on a given day.
Private Bookings
How many people do I need to have for a private game booking?
You need a minimum of 20 people for a private booking and your group will be provided a dedicated referee for the day.
What if we do not have the required number of people to play private?
If you don’t have the numbers to play privately then when you arrive we will mix you with another small group. If you are all renting then we will mix you with another group of renters or people at the same skill level.
What is required when booking a private game?
When making a booking we require a small deposit. The deposit amount is $20 per player. If your group has 30 players, the deposit would therefore be $600. If you do not show up on the day for your scheduled game or cancel without providing 7 full days notice, your deposit will not be refunded.
The deposit can be paid using PayPal from our website.
Can I switch the date of my already booked private game?
Yes. As long as you give us 72 hours notice so we can arrange things on our end.
Birthday Parties
Can you host a birthday party for a group of kids?
We can definitely host your birthday party. More Info.
Corporate Events
Can you host a corporate event at your field?
We can definitely host your corporate event. Please review the information under “Reservations” in the main menu. More Info.
Paintball Safety
Paintball is played in over 50 countries around the world and is considered one of the safest sports to play.
The beginning of the day starts off with a 20 minute safety tutorial and a brief Q&A session.
Our dedicated referees enforce our safety rules without exception and the three main safety rules are:
Barrel bags are placed over the end of the barrel of the gun to prevent a paintball hitting anyone or anything during an accidental discharge. This goes for the playing field and the picnic/staging area.
Safety masks are always worn in the playing fields and kept “down” at all times.
Always listen to the referees. Their main job is to keep everyone
When proper safety rules are vehemently followed, it is a very safe sport indeed.
The referees at our field will enforce these two rules and anyone not following the rules will be asked to leave.
Drugs and alcohol are not permitted at our field and anyone partaking will be asked to leave.
